Thankyou Royal Australian Mint (***great News***)

Bathurst Coin:

Being a resident of Bathurst, living at the foot of Mt Panorama, and being a person who often jogs around it, I wish this coin had more appeal to me, but honestly, it rates a 2/10 on my excitement meter.

Thanks for the posts AC

Hi CoinManTim,
Heres a mock up of the holey dollar and dump,


The currency determination described it as a normal $1 planchet with a holey dollar dump design. But wow it would be super cool if they used a bi metal foreign planchet, like the mistake roo coin.
